You are indeed one of the most helpful instructors I have ever encountered! You are extremely articulate and your videos are super organized and focused. I really appreciate all the time and planning that you put into them!!

Great hint about color combination at the end! Thanks, Liron!

Wow! Thank you Liron. You have clarified beautifully. Especially the context effect on temperature. Very helpful. Thank you very much.

Wow thank you this was so accessible and easy to understand. Thank you so much for sharing it !

Thank you ^_^ Very happy to hear!

That was an eye opener! Thank you! I never thought about color theory that way! Very informative!! Thank you!!

This is very helpful to keep in mind when mixing colours. Very informative1 Thanks, Liron.

Thank you for sharing - love your combinations of color

I love how you adjust as you go. So real.

Thanks, Liron. Right on for what we need.

Very helpful. I especially appreciate your explanation of your pallet.

That was fun. I got a lot of information about colors and had fun too.

This was a good demo! Helps define tint vs hue. I have always stayed away from using white as I feel it dulls the natural colour. Same with black. I do not even own a black as I mix my own using primary colours. But I will watch this many more times and do it with the vid till I have it down! Thank you!!

Omg. Perfect timing!

Thanks, Liron.

Color theory,,, not an easy subject, at least for me. I think watching it planted a few seeds and I will watch it again, especially the tints and hues. As always you have a way of presenting things that encourages me to learn more. Thank you.

Very nice Liron. good information here. Like you said at the end if you can show how to use that chart, that would help too. Maybe in some other time video. Thank you for sharing. :)

Thanks for color theory in watercolor in practice*... Much needed

great instruction

The green that you created from French Ultr + Yellow Ochre looks like Daniel Smith's Undersea Green!

How does one determine the purpose and use of your color theory? Why is it important?

It's important because once one is aware of the existence of these terms (shade, tint, saturation etc) - they start thinking about using them in the first place. So suddenly you may ask yourself - what will happen if I play around with how saturated my colors are? What happens if I decide to go with much darker shades for the entire painting? It's these thoughts that provoke growth - often even subconsciously (: It's a good topic for a future vid, may cover

Wait, saturation is the purest form of the hue and intensity relates to value. I think, right? I love the triangle approach.

So how is tint different from value? In both the cases colours are being lightened with more water.

Value encompasses both light and dark. Tints are the light range, shades are the dark range.

I don't think you understand this completely (I love your channel by the way). A triangle may not be the best way to demonstrate this as well. You are using value and tint in the same way. Let's stick with Hue, Value and Saturation. Hue is the color. Imagine a series of colors with red at one end and blue at the other where you start with pure red and add more and more blue until at the other end you have pure blue. So this is one side of your triangle. Value would be another side of your triangle where you might start with red and then gradually add water thus ending up with white or very light pink. Saturation (intensity) is the last side of your triangle. You start with red and "grey it out" until at the end you have something with no red and just a neutral grey tan. So, hue is the color and it transitions from one primary color to another. Value is the color getting lighter and lighter. Saturation is the color getting faded out but not lightened. Forget other the other names such as tint, shade, etc. Just to be clear, start with red (for example) and add more and more blue to illustrate hue. Start with red and add more and more water to illustrate value. Start with red and add more and more blue and yellow to illustrate saturation. Hue is changing the color, Value is lightening the color and Saturation is fading the color. I found this as the best illustration. learn.leighcotnoir.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/hsv7.jpg

But you can change the value not just by adding water, but also by adding black on the other side?

how do you "grey it out?" with grey or the color's complement?

When I see the reference to a color’s “tone” I understand that to mean saturation. And often I see color wheels and teachers all saying to tone a color by adding gray that has the same value as the color you are toning. Do you avoid this altogether and just use the complement? I’ve been looking for this answer everywhere! Liron has a whole video on toning with gray

@graybryan9521

@@darrenfromla Yes, if you have intense red and you want to reduce the saturation, you add a little green and you get a less intense red. If you add more green then you get something that is less red and more grey. To be more practical, you can use burnt sienna for a lot. It's more subtle than red since it's already a mixture so if you add it to most colors it will reduce the saturation. If you ever get a grey that isn't to your liking you can always add a little of the primary color you were trying to "grey out" or reduce the saturation of.

You could say that starting with the hue, you’ve changed the intensity towards white and towards black. Then for each intensity you changed the value.

Reading additional comments, one thing is clear. Colour is hard :-)

Very informative! Your palette is an Artwork as well. LOL. Stay safe.

I always thought that shades add gray not black. I still don't understand saturation and intensity.

i feel confused. seems like value and tint in watercolor are the same thing

I'm always confused with the shade, what to use if not black to darken a hue ???

@LironYan

You have many options actually! You can use a darker version of the same color (more paint, less water). You can also use a darker version of a different color, or a mix of few other colors. It all depends on the specific situation, as well as the light & shadow conditions 😉

Yeses mfkn tint my cheap colors all have fainter tint and also when they dry they produce a white overlayer

There's probably much filler in your paints. Try some quality paints, like M.Graham or Daniel Smith. With just three primary colors you can mix a whole scala of colors. (In the description of this video you see three colors mentioned which are nice to start out with).

the temperature concept wasn't clear at all. how to know when a color is a warm or cool? simple look at your color wheel and choose red, if you move a little to the blue side you'll have cooler red colors, if you move to the yellow side you'll have warmer red colors. temperature concept is all about how much blue, red or yellow is in the color that you're painting with. that's why a lot of teachers and schooling methods always start up with the primary, secondary and tertiary colors concept before speaking about hue, saturation or value because once you got in your mind that all colors are a mix of two or three it becomes easier to understand. but that was only a little detail to point out.

First here ✌

Great video, L. However, I still don’t understand the diff between tint and value, bc you used water to lighten both colors (red, black respectively)

Ugh. Shade is adding black. Tone is adding gray.

It's frustrating to see you mix paint on the paper.
